Title:

> Creatine promotes cancer metastasis through activation of Smad2/3

Tldr is basically that creatine helps body cells (in rats) to grow. Regardless wherever they're bad (cancer) or good (muscle). At least that's how I understood that study the last time I came across it. So probably stop using creatine when you've a cancer that's growing. Or its liable to use the creatine to turbocharge it's growth

"Immunity" = "immune system activity." "Anti-tumor immunity" = "immune system activity against tumors."

So it seems that from this research the outcome is indeed creatine = good
